Chelsea set to begin contract talks with Brazilian star

 

Chelsea will look to reward Brazilian star Willian with a new £100,000-a-week deal in the new year, according to the London Evening Standard.

 

Willian, 27, still has three years left to run on his current £80,000-a-week contract, but the Premier League champions are keen to reward his fine start to the season.

 

The Brazil international has arguably been Chelsea’s stand out player in their disastrous start to the season and is set to follow in the footsteps of his national teammate Ramires in penning their long-term future to the club.
